Well here it is Saturday and I'm back home writing this report .My arms are sore but that's a good thing!It all started at sunrise ,i talked by buddy who lives on the lower puyallup to come with me and he obliged.We start fishing and bam i get the first fish of the morning.Then i caught them regular for a few hours .The guy to my left hooked a nice hatchery brat and another was hooked above us .That's 5 steelhead in three days there .Oh i was lucky enough i hooked a b-run silver nice fish but released it ,was probably 11 or so pounds nice fish and bright no tint was a shocker.I used the same stuff as the day before same spot everything .O h i bet your wondering what they got the steelies on,the guy next to me got his on green corkie and green yarn ,the others were on corkies in pink and pink yarn.Today was a first again for me ,I had the pleasure of seeing chums ,silvers and steelies caught in the same spot.ABSOLUTLEY no fish on bobbers there so don't bother .Anyway it was great to fish and catch fish with such nice people ,if your reading this JENS this is a good place for family members too.NOT to far from parking so makes things easy.

i just walked down there to see if you were down there. I stood behind you lookin at the river just for a minute, then i left, i almost asked if that was u. I fished from 96th st to the bike track, but no luck. I should have stayed up there.

fish the far side of the river right on the edge and drift from 1 to 11 then reel back in its more productive .greens in chartreuse or pink flourecent corkies .dont be afraid to go back and fourth with corkie colors but make sure you use shrimp oil .
